Yesterday all "nonemergency USA government employees" at both the United States embassy in the Iraqi capital and the US consulate in Erbil were ordered to leave Iraq. Today, over 15 years after the United States invaded Iraq and toppled Saddam Hussein's regime, the Islamic Republic is regarded as a main player in Iraq.

This ran counter to an assessment by a senior British general in the US-led mission to defeat ISIS who suggested there was no increased threat from Iranian proxies.

Secretary of state Mike Pompeo, meanwhile, asserted that the U.S. wants a "deterrent" there in case Iran wants to "come after an American interest". "This threat stream, let me tell you, is real", he added, comparing it to the situation in 2011 in Iraq when US installations were under direct attack.

Iran's allies in Iraq negatively reacted to Pompeo's visit, with Popular Moblization Units (PMU) leader Moeen al-Kadhimi saying at a press conference, "The Americans are in trouble now, especially considering that United States troops' bases are known in Iraq and the region and can be targeted easily".

"We're aware of their presence, clearly, and we monitor them along with a whole range of others because that's the environment we're in".

But Germany and the Netherlands said Wednesday that they were suspending training of soldiers in Iraq due to a "generally heightened" state of alert. One day later, Pompeo told CNBC that, in the event that Iran chose to target U.S. interests, "we are prepared to respond in an appropriate way".

The claim that hostile militia forces are positioning the rockets near bases housing American troops, provides insight into the threats the USA faces in the Middle East in the wake of rising tensions between the Trump administration and the Iranian regime.

Trump has bucked the tradition of presidential candidates baring their finances and divulging how much they have paid in taxes. The documents revealed that Trump claimed to have lost $1.17 billion from his real estate businesses during that decade.
